Parasite-mediated microhabitat segregation between congeneric hosts.

Biology letters - 1 Feb 2018

Friesen Olwyn C, Poulin Robert, Lagrue Clément

Abstract excerpt

Parasite-mediated competition can shape community structure and host distribution. If two species compete for resources, parasites may indirectly change the outcome of competition. We tested the role of a trematode parasite in mediating microhabitat use by congeneric isopods Austridotea annectens and Austridotea lacustris Although both isopods share resources, they rarely co-occur in the same discrete...
